I woke up in a dream today
To the cold of the static and put my cold feet on the floor Forgot all about yesterday Remembering I'm pretending to be where I'm not anymore A little taste of hypocrisy And I'm left in the wake of the mistake slow to react Even though you're so close to me You're still so distant And I can't bring you back It's true the way I feel Was promised by your face The sound of your voice Painted on my memories Even if you're not with me I'm with you You / Now I see / Keeping everything inside You / Now I see / Even when I close my eyes I hit you and you hit me back We fall to the floor the rest of the day stands still Fine line between this and that When things go wrong I pretend the past isn't real Now I'm trapped in this memory And I'm left in the wake of the mistake slow to react Even though you're close to me You're still so distant And I can't bring you back No, no matter how far we've come I can't wait to see tomorrow No, no matter how far we've come I I can't wait to see tomorrow With you |

Graffiti decorations
Underneath a sky of dust A constant wave of tension On top of broken trust The lessons that you taught me I learn were never true Now I find myself in question They point the finger at me again Guilty by association You point the finger at me again I wanna run away Never say goodbye I wanna know the truth Instead of wondering why I wanna know the answers No more lies I wanna shut the door And open up my mind Paper bags and angry voices Under a sky of dust Another wave of tension Has more than filled me up All my talk of taking action These words were never true Now I find myself in question They point the finger at me again Guilty by association You point the finger at me again I wanna run away Never say goodbye I wanna know the truth Instead of wondering why I wanna know the answers No more lies I wanna shut the door And open up my mind Gonna run away I wanna run away Never say goodbye I wanna know the truth Instead of wondering why I wanna know the answers No more lies I wanna shut the door And open up my mind I wanna run away And open up my mind I wanna run away And open up my mind I wanna run away And open up my mind I wanna run away And open up my mind |

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right today Why am I so uptight today? Paranoia's all I got left I don't know what stressed me first Or how the pressure was fed but I know just what it feels like To have a voice in the back of my head It's like a face that I hold inside A face that awakes when I close my eyes A face watches every time I lie A face that laughs every time I fall And watches everything So I know that when it's time to sink or swim That the face inside is hearing me right underneath my skin It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back It's like a whirlwind inside of my head It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin I know I've got a face in me Points out all my mistakes to me You've got a face on the inside too and Your paranoia's probably worse I don't know what set me off first but I know what I can't stand Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is I can't add up to what you can but Everybody has a face that they hold inside A face that awakes when I close my eyes A face watches every time I lie A face that laughs every time they fall And watches everything So you know that when it's time to sink or swim That the face inside is watching you too right inside your skin It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back It's like a whirlwind inside of my head It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back It's like a whirlwind inside of my head It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin The face inside is right beneath your skin The face inside is right beneath your skin The face inside is right beneath your skin The sun goes down I feel the light betray me The sun goes down I feel the light betray me The sun goes down It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back It's like a whirlwind inside of my head It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back It's like a whirlwind inside of my head It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin |

What do I do to ignore
them behind me Do I follow my instincts blindly Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening Do I sit here and try to stand it Or do I try to catch them red handed Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness Because I can t hold on when Im stretched so thin I make the right moves but Im lost within I put on my daily fade but then I just end up getting hurt again By myself Myself I ask why but in my mind I find I can t rely on myself Myself I ask why but in my mind I find I can t rely on myself I can't hold on To what I want when Im stretched so thin It's all too much to take in I can't hold on To anything watching everything spin With thoughts of failure sinking in If I turn my back Im defenseless And to go blindly seems senseless If I hide my pride and let it all go on Then they ll take from me till everything is gone If I let them go I ll be outdone But if I try to catch them I ll be outrun If Im killed by the questions like a cancer Then I ll be buried in the silence of the answer By myself I ask why but in my mind I find I can t rely on myself I ask why but in my mind I find I can t rely on myself I can't hold on To what I want when Im stretched so thin It's all too much to take in I can't hold on To anything watching everything spin With thoughts of failure sinking in Don't you know I can't tell you how to make it go No matter what I do how hard I try I can t seem to convince myself why Im stuck on the outside Don't you know I can't tell you how to make it go No matter what I do how hard I try I can t seem to convince myself why Im stuck on the outside I can't hold on To what I want when Im stretched so thin It's all too much to take in I can't hold on To anything watching everything spin With thoughts of failure sinking in I can't hold on To what I want when Im stretched so thin It's all too much to take in I can't hold on To anything watching everything spin With thoughts of failure sinking in |

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal Fear is how I fall Confusing what is real There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface Consuming, confusing This lack of self control I fear is never ending Controlling, I can't seem To find myself again My walls are closing in Without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced That it's just too much pressure to take I've felt this way before So insecure Crawling in my skin These wounds they will not heal Fear is how I fall Confusing what is real Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me Distracting, reacting Against my will I stand beside my own reflection It's haunting how I can't seem... to find myself again my walls are closing in without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take I've felt this way before so insecure crawling in my skin these wounds they will not heal fear is how I fall confusing confusing crawling in my skin these wounds they will not heal fear is how I fall confusing, confusing what is real there's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface consuming confusing what is real this lack of self-control I fear is never ending controlling confusing what is real |

I've lied to you
The same way that I always do This is the last smile That I'll fake for the sake of being with you Everything falls apart even the people who never frown eventually break down The sacrifice of hiding in a lie Everything has to end you'll soon find we're out of time left to watch it all unwind The sacrifice is never knowing Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away I've tried like you To do everything you wanted too This is the last time I'll take the blame for the sake of being with you Everything falls apart even the people who never frown eventually break down The sacrifice of hiding in a lie Everything has to end you'll soon find we're out of time left to watch it all unwind The sacrifice is never knowing Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away We're all out of time this is how we find how it all unwinds The sacrifice of hiding in a lie We're all out of time this is how we find how it all unwinds The sacrifice is never knowing Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away Pushes me away |

Where should I start?
Disjointed heart I've got no commitment To my own flesh and blood Left all alone Far from my home No one to hear me, to heal my ill heart, I Keep it locked up inside Cannot express To the point I've regressed If anger's a gift, then I guess I've been blessed, I Keep it locked up inside Keep my distance from your lies It's too late to love me now You have never showed me It's too late to love me now You don't even know me Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Break) Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace (Me) Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Too) Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Keep it locked up inside Keep my distance from your lies Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Break) Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace (Me) Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Too) Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Keep my distance Keep my distance Keep my distance Keep my distance Spit drips in the jar, the witless witness Cryptic colloquialism shifts your midrift Dark all I do embark the shadows, Involved with my thought catalogue, analogue, rap catalogue Keep my distance, and fear resistance, hurt by persistence, The twisted web of tangled lies strangles my hope to waste and numbs the taste the taste And I'm forced to face these hate crimes against the state of being Feeling the weightlessness pressed between the ceiling, reeling around room, Riding a bubble of sound proof, It's the frequency making you shake-shake with every boom Involuntary muscle contraction, Ignoring and drinking musical gas fume euphoria The sound pounds to make the dead flush To have you a head rush With red thoughts and said stuff |

It's start wiht One
thing I don't know why It doesn't even matter how hard you try Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme To explain in due time All I know Time is a valuable thing Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings Watch it count down to the end of the day The clock ticks life away It's so unreal Didn't look out below Watch the time go right out the window Trying to hold on but didn't even know Wasted it all just to Watch you go I kept everything inside and Even though I tried it all fell apart What it meant to me will eventually Be a memory of a time when I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter I had to fall And lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter One thing I don't know why Doesn't even matter how hard you try Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme To remind myself how I tried so hard In spite of the way you were mocking me Acting like I was part of your property Remembering all the times you fought with me I'm surprised it got so far Things aren't the way they were before You wouldn't even recognize me anymore Not that you knew me back then But it all comes back to me In the end i kept everything inside and Even though I tried it all fell apart What it meant to me will eventually Be a memory of a time when I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter I had to fall And lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter I put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go And for all this There's only one thing you should know I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter I had to fall And lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter |

I watch how the moon
sits in the sky On a dark night shining with the light from the sun The sun doesn't give light to the moon Assuming the moon's going to owe it one It makes me think of how you act to me You do favors and then rapidly You just turn around and start asking me about Things you want back from me I'm sick of the tension sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest I want to be in another place I hate when you say you don't understand You'll see it's not meant to be I want to be in the energy not with the enemy A place for my head Maybe someday I'll be just like you and Step on people like you do and Run away the people I thought I knew I remember back then who you were You used to be calm used to be strong Used to be generous but you should've known That you'd wear out your welcome Now you see how quiet it is all alone I'm so sick of the tension sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest I'm so sick of the tension sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest I want to be in another place I hate when you say you don't understand You'll see it's not meant to be I want to be in the energy not with the enemy A place for my head You try to take the best of me Go away You try to take the best of me Go away You try to take the best of me Go away You try to take the best of me Go away You try to take the best of me Go away You try to take the best of me Go away You try to take the best of me Go away You try to take the best of me Go away I want to be in another place I hate when you say you don't understand You'll see it's not meant to be I want to be in the energy not with the enemy A place for my head I'm so sick of the tension sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest I'm so sick of the tension sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest |

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety The picture is there The memory won't escape me But why should I care From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety The picture is there The memory won't escape me But why should I care There's a place so dark you can't see the end Skies cock back and shock that which can't defend The rain then sends dripping an acidic question Forcefully the power of suggestion Then with the eyes shut looking thought the rust and rot And dust a spot of light floods the floor And pours over the rusted world of pretend The eyes ease open and it's dark again From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety The picture is there The memory won't escape me But why should I care In the memory you'll find me Eyes burning up The darkness holding me tightly Until the sun rises up Moving all around screaming of the ups and downs Pollution manifested in perpetual sound The wheels go round and the sunset creeps past the Street lamps chain link and concrete A little piece of paper with a picture drawn floats On down the street till the wind is gone The memory now is like the picture was then When the paper's crumpled up it can't be perfect again From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety The picture is there The memory won't escape me But why should I care From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety The picture is there The memory won't escape me But why should I care In the memory you'll find me Eyes burning up The darkness holding me tightly Until the sun rises up Now you got me caught in the act You bring the thought back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now you got me caught in the act You bring the thought back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now you got me caught in the act You bring the thought back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now you got me caught in the act You bring the thought back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now you got me caught in the act You bring the thought back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now you got me caught in the act You bring the thought back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now you got me caught in the act You bring the thought back I'm telling you that I see it right through you In the memory you'll find me Eyes burning up The darkness holding me tightly Until the sun rises up In the memory you'll find me Eyes burning up The darkness holding me tightly Until the sun rises up |
